That doesn't tell me anything new as I already knew all that and goes inline with what I wrote.
Greater than 1Ghz in only certain specific setup hence it's rarely ever run at 1ghz in mobile devices.
As the yield gets better, higher stock speed is more possible. Nokia didn't want to risk it still obviously.

To people asking for 1000mhz kernel. Its not worth it, I've noticed that @ 900mhz the phone is absolutely smoothest. 1000mhz introduced minor lag, even the psx4all works slightly faster.

Also 825mhz kernel now added.

was more of a confirmation of your knowledge rather than questioning or excelling it...

^^^^^ Read from page 42, everything has been posted already.

900mhz on now and it is great. Response time has been reduced dramatically. This is great work and i am most grateful for it!

Its quite funny reading all the original posts and how everyone was saying that the device will vapourise and be extremely unstable.

Might be a good idea for the OP to upodate his post with the files and flashing code so people are not asking for them constantly.

Just a reminder for those who are having problems using the flasher program.

When entering into flash mode, press the U key on the phone keyboard, not the PC keyboard.

I know this sounds obvious, but it took me forever to figure this out lol.
